Objective:To observe the inhibitory effect of disodium cantharidinate on human hepatoma cell line HepG2 and investi-gate its possible mechanisms. Methods:HepG2 cells were treated with different concentration of disodium cantharidinate,The in- hibiton of cell proliferation,cell cycle distribution,expression of Survivin and activity of Caspase-3 were respectively evaluated by MTT assay,flow cytometry,immunocytochemistry,and chromatometry. Results:Disodium cantharidinate could inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells. The IC50 at 24,48,72 h after intervention were 2.41?0.48,0.72?0.08,and 0.39?0.04 ug/ml,The cells of G2/M phase and activity of Caspase-3 were increased.the expression respectively of Survivin were inhibited after the intervention of disodium cantharidinate. Conclusion:The inhibitory effect of disodium cantharidinate on HepG2 cells may be mediated by the block of cellcycle,enhancement of Caspase-3,and inhibition of Survivin.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Yang Xin Huo Xue(nourishing the heart and activating blood flow) needling method plus Western medication in treating chronic heart failure due to coronary heart disease (CHD).Method Eighty patients with CHD-induced chronic heart failure were randomized into a treatment group and a control group, to respectively receiveYang Xin Huo Xueneedling method plus Western medicationor Western medication alone for intervention. The heart function was estimated and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) was detected before and after the intervention in both groups, and the change of heart function was observed.Result Yang Xin Huo Xueneedling method plus Western medication achieved a satisfactory therapeutic efficacy in treating chronic heart failure, and its total effective rate was significantly different from the rate in the control group (P<0.05); compared with the control group, the BNP value declined more significantly in the treatment group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Yang Xin Huo Xueneedling method plus Western medication can produce a satisfactory efficacy in treating CHD-induced chronicheart failure.

A L-serine producing facuhative methylotroph mutant (Mth~H、Gly~R)was derived from Pseudomonas flava A3 by combination treatment with ultraviolet(UV)and diethylsulfate(DES).It could accumulate 6.2g/L L-serine in the medium containing 30g/L glycine and 1% methanol as carbon source when it was cultured for 3 days,and it has an improvement about 67.6% compared with the origin.The mutant also has a good stability of descendiblity of L-serine producing.

Exploring the functional network during the interaction between emotion and cognition is an important way to reveal the underlying neural connections in the brain. Sparse Bayesian network (SBN) has been used to analyze causal characteristics of brain regions and has gradually been applied to the research of brain network. In this study, we got theta band and alpha band from emotion electroencephalogram (EEG) of 22 subjects, constructed effective networks of different arousal, and analyzed measurements of complex network including degree, average clustering coefficient and characteristic path length. We found that: (1) compared with EEG signal of low arousal, left middle temporal extensively interacted with other regions in high arousal, while right superior frontal interacted less; (2) average clustering coefficient was higher in high arousal and characteristic path length was shorter in low arousal.

Objective To introduce a rapid colormietric assay for survival and proliferation of bacterium and fungi. Methods Colorimetric assay and automatic microplate scanning spectrophotometer were used for assay of survival and proliferation of bacteria and fungi in the present work. Results Close correlation has been found between the A (570?nm) values of the formazan products and the cell concentration of living bacteria and fungi detected.Conclusion The present work has developed an effective, sensitive and convenient assay method for survival and proliferation assay of bacteria and fungi.

Objective To identify the risk factors resulting in arrhythmias after transcather closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defects in patients under 18 years old so as to decrease the incidence of arrhythmias after the interventional catheterization.Methods The types and risk factors of arrhythmias were analysed in 89 cases who underwent transcather closure of perimembranous ventricular septal defect from Jun. 2002 to Jun. 2004. Results Total procedures were attempted in 89 cases successfully. 11cases were developed various kinds of block conduct. The up margin of defects to the aortic valve

Objective To study the effect of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) on the suppressors of cytokine signaling (SOCS) in the kidney of MRL/lpr mice and evaluate the protection of HCQ on lupus nephritis.Methods Twenty-six rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:the control group which was consisted of 6 mice; the MRL/lpr group which was consisted of 10 mice; and the HCQ group which was consisted of 10.24-hour urinary protein level and anti dsDNA levels were tested.The expressions of SOCS-1 and SOCS-3 protein were determined by western blot.Analysis of variance was used to determine statistically significant differences between the two groups.A P value less than 0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.Results Compared with the control group,the levels of 24-hour urinary protein [(2 356.6±509.3) mg vs (440.3±90.1)mg] and anti ds-DNA (128.7±32.3 vs 14.9±1.4) were significantly increased in the MRL/lpr group,the expression levels of SOCS-1 and SOCS-3 protein were increased.After treated with HCQ,the levels of 24-hour urinary protein [(70.8±11.1) mg vs (2 356.6±509.3) mg] and anti-dsDNA (111.8±330.1 vs 128.7±32.3)were significantly decreased,the expression level of SOCS-1 and SOCS-3 protein decreased significantly (P＜ 0.05).Conclusion HCQ can inhibit SOCS expression in the kidney of lupus mice,reduce proteinuria and delay progression of immune disorders and lupus nephritis.

Objective:The purpose of the study was to investigate the effects of enteral nutrition on stress response and gut barrier function after surgery for esophageal cancer. Methods: Patients who underwent esophagectomy were divided into two groups. Group PN (28 patients) served as the control group. Group EN (26 patients) received enteral nutrition. Results: The serum total protein, albumin, prealbumin and transferrin decreased after operation, but there were no differences between the two groups. The serum levels of IL-6 were significantly higher on the first and third postoperative days after the operation in two groups (P
